Under the falling glances
Turning this way to be in one world,
That way to see another,
Each character getting on the train,
Chinese, or speaking loudly to Alone,
Those covered in the dream
Made of commercial
Sleight of hand,
Remain that which slides
Between the shifting levels,
Watery, transparent,
Icicles melting
Too fast to break.
